A rare case report of hemolysis in a newborn: hereditary elliptocytosis.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Hereditary Elliptocytosis (HE) comprises clinically and genetically heterogeneous red cell membranopathies resulting from defects in the horizontal linkage between red blood cell (RBC) membrane and cytoskeletal proteins, which affect mechanical stability and deformability, thereby reducing RBC lifespan. The principal defect in HE is due to dysfunction or deficiency of RBC cytoskeletal proteins. Case description: This study reported a case of severe hemolysis occurring within one day after birth in a term newborn. High-throughput sequencing was used to characterize the pathogenic gene variation in this child and to study the correlation between the identified variation and its corresponding phenotypic characteristics. Conclusion: HE is caused by monoallelic mutations, which justify the phenotypic heterogeneity observed in patients. Furthermore, molecular analysis using high-throughput sequencing enables diagnosis in disorders with highly variable heterogeneity. HE can also present with severe hemolysis during the neonatal period.
